Menu drops behind non-htm pages in iframe

[Blandad]

My Menu targets an iframe which works great if the target link is an htm file however when the target is an xls for example the menu drops behind this xls.
Is there a solution to get the drop menu on top of the iframe irrespective of what file type the target link is?

Im having the same problem with PDF documents and have yet to find a workaround. Will keep checking this thread to see if anyone has a solution and will post if I find anything. Good luck

i have my menu on the left side of the screen and an iframe on the right of it. the menu links target to the iframe next to it. i noticed on ie 5.5 and higher that the menu extensions overlapped the iframe, but any ie under 5.5 showed the iframe in front of the menu extensions and the menu extensions were covered behind it. is there any way to fix this so the menu extension will always show in front of it? is there a javascript to make the menu override or hide the iframe when selected?

Just a thought here, but this sounds like the same sort of issue that existed with forms that was fixed in a recent release. (version 3.5)

It might be worth trying the form fix but with the iframe instead.

The form fix is here.. http://www.milonic.co.uk/menu/overforms_sample.php

i tried doing the hiding form element and it worked and i switched in the iframe instead of the form but it wouldn't hide the form the form still showed in front of the extended menu, is there any way at all to hide the iframe?
